Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of metal heat treatment, and in particular relates to an overheat protection method for a multi-turn coil and a cooling device thereof. Background Art

[0002] A coil is an inductive component made of a material with excellent electrical conductivity. It consists of one or more conductive coils with specific electromagnetic properties. By winding a wire into a spiral or other shape, an alternating current flows through it, generating a magnetic field of the same frequency around the coil. This magnetic field can be used to achieve electromagnetic heating, induce voltage, and store energy, resulting in widespread use in various electrical and electronic devices. However, during operation, the coil temperature rises due to resistive heating and heat conduction from other components. This not only reduces the efficiency and performance of the device but can also cause insulation degradation, leading to the risk of short circuits or insulation failure, seriously impacting the safety and service life of the device. Therefore, coils are typically equipped with cooling measures to prevent overheating and ensure efficient operation. In electromagnetic heating applications, when a workpiece is placed in the coil's magnetic field, eddy currents are generated within it. These eddy currents generate Joule heating within the workpiece, causing it to rapidly heat up. During this process, the electromagnetic coupling between the coil and the workpiece determines the number and density of magnetic field lines entering the workpiece, a key factor affecting heating efficiency and accuracy. However, as the workpiece temperature rises, the coil also heats up due to its own resistive heating and absorption of radiant heat from the workpiece. Rising temperature affects coils in many ways. First, as coil temperature rises, the resistance of the conductive material increases, weakening the magnetic field generated by the coil, thereby reducing heating efficiency and electromagnetic coupling with the workpiece. Second, rising temperature causes thermal expansion of the material, inducing mechanical stress changes in the coil, leading to geometric deformation of the coil. This deformation changes the physical distance between the coil and the workpiece, and this distance change significantly affects electromagnetic coupling efficiency. Especially in high-frequency electromagnetic heating, even slight changes in distance can lead to fluctuations in power density, affecting heating uniformity and accuracy. Furthermore, if the coil is made of ferromagnetic material, rising temperature can also reduce the coil's magnetic permeability, and even cause it to lose its magnetism above the Curie point, resulting in a significant imbalance in the magnetic field distribution, which directly affects the induction heating effect. Therefore, employing effective heat dissipation and cooling technologies to control coil temperature is not only a key factor in ensuring the proper operation of the entire induction heating system, but also a vital guarantee for ensuring heating accuracy and quality, and promoting high-end precision manufacturing.

[0003] Patent CN101162636B discloses a coil protective layer for a medium-frequency furnace. The protective layer is composed of high-temperature resistant hollow balls, powder materials and binders. After being coated on the surface of the coil, it plays a heat-insulating role. However, the protective layer cannot completely block heat transfer. When the cooling effect of the coolant decreases or when heated for a long time, the temperature of the coil will continue to rise or even overheat. Patent CN214039528U discloses a coil protection device for a medium-frequency induction heating furnace, which can realize automatic replenishment of coolant. However, after heating starts, the coil temperature is also directly affected by the heating time, heating temperature, etc., and closed-loop control between induction heating and coolant circulation status is achieved according to the change in coil temperature. It can not only control the change in coil temperature, but also is an effective way to match appropriate cooling hydraulics and reduce resource waste. However, this device cannot effectively prevent the coil from overheating in essence. Therefore, it is necessary to design an overheating protection method and cooling device for multi-turn coils.

When the valve core is in the middle position, the liquid circuit is closed, and when the valve core is actuated, the liquid circuit is opened. The solenoid valve 6 is a three-position three-way valve. When the valve core is in the middle position, the liquid circuit is closed. A plurality of coolant interfaces 71 are provided on the coil 7, and the coolant interfaces 71 are numbered in sequence as [Y1, Y2,…, Y m ,…,Y n ], the cooling liquid interface 71 is provided with a solenoid valve 6, and the solenoid valves 6 are numbered in sequence as [R1, R2, ..., R m ,…,R n ], the distance D between adjacent coolant interfaces 71 is less than D max The coolant interface 71 is connected to the coil liquid inlet channel 511 and the coil liquid return channel 512 through the solenoid valve 6, respectively, to realize automatic monitoring and judgment of the coolant remaining amount and liquid quality, and automatically replace the coolant. During induction heating, the circulation state of the coolant is adjusted in real time according to the change of the coil 7 temperature to ensure the cooling effect of the coil 7.

[0051] The following is a further description of the overheat protection method and cooling device for a multi-turn coil of the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments:

[0052] To ensure the cooling rate, limit T2 ≤ the first warning temperature T max1 In this embodiment, T max1=60℃, T1=1500℃, T0=25℃, A s =1m 2 ,σ=5.67×10−8W / (m 2 ·K 4 ), surface emissivity ε = 0.1, coolant density ρ = 1000 kg / m 3 , the specific heat capacity of the coolant c p =4184 J / (kg·K), coolant flow rate Q=0.01 m 3 / s is substituted into the formula to obtain the maximum value D of the distance D between two adjacent coolant interfaces 71 along the winding direction of the coil 7. max ≤3.29m.

During induction heating, the coolant circulation state will be dynamically adjusted according to the temperature changes of the coil 7. Therefore, the solenoid valves 6 installed at the coolant interface 71 are all three-way valves with three positions. When the valve core is in the neutral position, the liquid circuit is closed. When the valve core is actuated, the corresponding coolant interface 71 switches to a liquid inlet or a liquid outlet.
